In all the affected camps locals have tried to contact the responsible authorities for cleaning, but they had to hopelessly return as authorities said they were not asked to clean those areas.

“They (authorities) only clean that area, where INGOS or international guest come to visit the camps. They do not have any concerns about our suffering,” complained a suffering Rohingya in Kutupalong camp.

On the other hand, dirt accumulation is not only restricting the movement but also increasing various infectious disease like malaria, diarrhea, skin allergies, etc. among children and elderly Rohingya.

Since late 2016, the newly arrived Rohingya are combating to get even the tiniest portion of basic human needs met and new challenges are emerging in the makeshift camps just to live as a human being.
